About this title

Synopsis

ear to ground is a four-part Black History Month poetry sequence written as discipline, not decoration.

Across fire, refusal, joy, and responsibility, these poems listen for ancestral instruction and measure history by what survives in the body, the home, and the quiet decisions we make each day.

From repast tables and folded programs
to vigilance in white spaces
to jubilee and generational inheritance,

this collection asks:

What do we carry?
What do we refuse?
What do we protect?
What must we pass forward?

Memory is not passive.
It is something we carry forward — or fail to.
